Instructions
- 1
Combine pork and marinade/sauce ingredients (soy sauce, cornstarch, sesame oil) in a large bowl or zip lock bag. If you are about to cook it, let it marinade at the very least 15-30 minutes. If you are making this ahead, cover and refrigerate for 30 minutes before cooking.

In a large nonstick cooking pan or wok, heat cooking oil over medium-high heat. When the oil is hot, add ginger, and let it heat up for about half a minute.

Then add the pork, and stir fry until mostly browned.

Add pepper in to the pan/wok and stir fry everything together. Stir fry for another 3-5 minutes or so until pork is cooked thoroughly and the peppers have softened (but not soggy yet! It’s yummier when there’s still a little crunch to it).
